J Young MDK is bringing the funk mixed with upbeat hip–hop with his brand new single “Mr. Nice Guy”.

Clocked in a 70’s-themed setting, J Young raps as his love interest makes small movements that suggest her underappreciation for the nice guy. His flow on the track is reminiscent of an early Kendrick mixed with Drake but undeniably J Young’s own flair. He took to social media to present his fans with a preview and behind the scenes look at the single’s production. Though the visuals have a retro vibe, the song is very much a modern day trending song waiting to happen.

At this point, J Young MDK has shown how versatile he truly can be as an artist. He has touched on hip-hop, pop, alternative, and now funk in the past 10 years alone!

He is on track to release his 5th album this year after the string of hits that have immediately gone to charting status. This includes a feature on Jamie Foxx’s single and  soundtrack  “Mowing Down Vamps (BUD)” for the Netflix ‘s #1 comedy-thriller, “Day Shift”.
